I do intermittent fasting and I tend to eat a lot of protein in just one sitting. What is your opinion on using digestive enzyme during my meal to help with the digestion and absorption of the nutrients? Is it worth using them or is it total bro science?

Thanks!

I am not educated enough on this topic to comment.

Personally I don't think it's anything to worry about unless you are using steroids and need to take in 300+ grams of protein per day.

Yao! Im currently incapacitated by a dislocated kneecap. Gonna be out of the gym for some time. The only thing i can do is work arms at home with dumbbells. Im doing tris one day and the next bis and forearms. Hitting them quite hard. Is it ok to do this continously or should i rest some days? I have no connective tissue pain from doing this for some weeks now,and the strenght has not diminished. Both bis and tris and forearms get 48 hours of rest before being slaughtered again. Is this ok? GAINZwise i mean?

How many sets per day? And how intense are the sets/ Are you pushing for progression or just doing lighter reps?

Hey, I'm having a problem with my bench press. When pressing up from my chest, my right elbow flares out. This even happens when lowering the weight on the bar to something like 40kg (I'm doing Starting Strength and my Bench is now at 66kg). Do you have any tips for me or should I post a video first?
